headliner Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 The swingman was fined $25,000 for "public statements detrimental to the NBA," the league announced on Tuesday. On Aug. 28, Jackson said that he would like to be traded to Cleveland, New York or one of the Texas teams. Warriors coach Don Nelson said on Monday that Jackson is still his captain. "I've talked to him," Nelson said. "I don't anticipate any problems." Less than a year ago, Jackson signed a three-year extension worth $28 million. rest here http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4476373&campaign=rss&source=NBAHeadlines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenneral Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 $25,000 is pocket change for these athletes. I doubt he really cares. -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headliner Posted September 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Not really about the money I just think that Jackson has lost a lot of respect around the league and he just made it harder for himself since he didn’t handle it the right way. I think it was stupid of him to publicly ask for a trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
